Does anyone know where I can find a true high tea in San Diego County? All of the ones I've seen are more like afternoon tea. My grandma is coming into town from England and would like to go to one.

Actually, there is more than one difference. Afternoon Tea or Low Tea vs. High Tea: Please do not refer to your afternoon tea as a high tea. Remember, a high tea is served in the late afternoon or early evening (5 PM to 7 PM) taking the place of dinner. Served at a “high” table with seated place settings. The foods are heartier and consist of salads, one or two hot dishes, pot pies, cold chicken, sliced meats, cakes, fruit tarts, custards and fresh fruits. The tea may be served hot or iced. The addition of any supper dish would be appropriate.

Umm, high tea actually refers to supper, or a light evening meal taken at the kitchen table. Low tea is the formal afternoon tea. The words High or Low refer to the height of the table, not the level of formality.

There is a place called 'Tea on Chatsworth' on the corner of Voltaire and Chatsworth in Point Loma, right across from Point Loma HS. I've never been there, but drive by it a lot and it looks authentic.
